How to: Bind F13 to F24 keys on the G-keys (Logitech Gaming Keyboards)
-- How to use this script:
-- 1. Install the Logitech Gaming Software: http://support.logitech.com/en_us/software/lgs
-- 2. Launch it, and right click on your profile (the gear icon) and then click on "Scripts".
-- 3. Add the following code into the Script window, save it, and close it. Enjoy.
-- Now G1 is bound to F13, G2 to G14, ... G12 to F24.
function OnEvent(event, arg)
-- OutputLogMessage("event = %s, arg = %s\n", event, arg)
fKey = {
[1] = 0x64, -- F13
[2] = 0x65, -- F14
[3] = 0x66, -- F15
[4] = 0x67, -- F16
[5] = 0x68, -- F17
[6] = 0x69, -- F18
[7] = 0x6A, -- F19
[8] = 0x6B, -- F20
[9] = 0x6C, -- F21
[10] = 0x6D, -- F22
[11] = 0x6E, -- F23
[12] = 0x76 -- F24
}
if (event == "G_PRESSED") then
PressKey(fKey[arg])
end
if (event == "G_RELEASED") then
ReleaseKey(fKey[arg])
end
end

I am not sure, but I don't think there is more than 24 function keys.

While this was extremely helpful in the past with Logi Gaming Software since it lacked bindings like this without scripting, it is no longer needed with Logi G Hub. You can now bind F13 through F24 through the UI to any of the G keys.

Those of you who use Gaming Software should remove it. It has been abandoned in favor of G Hub. It's last update was 2018-10-08. Newer devices are unsupported and Logitech no longer offers customer assistance with this software. They instead direct you to G Hub.

What if I want to do this same thing to my G600 mouse. Those G keys are G9-G20

Has it improved any? Last time I used it, I lost all the profiles I'd set up after a reboot, so I immediately switched back to LGS, which still works fine with the occasional hiccup.

It has improved a lot since my comment. Logitech Gaming Software (LGS) profiles are stored at C:\Users\<name>\Appdata\Local\Logitech\Logitech Gaming Software\Profiles.

  1. Make sure LGHUB isn't installed at this time. Only LGS.
  2. Copy the Logitech folder from AppData to temporary location (Desktop for example).
  3. Uninstall LGS and reboot.
  4. Copy the Logitech folder back to AppData.
  5. Install LGHUB.
  6. From the LGHUB interface, click the cog/gear icon top right.
  7. Click "Import Profiles"
  8. LGHUB will find and import + convert LGS profiles to be usable with LGHUB.

Note: Some devices are not supported in LGHUB and those device specific settings in profiles will not carry over.

does LGHUB support the g710+?

I guess then the effort I put in yesterday was worth it. See this gist for anyone who wants a demonstration on targeting a specific M-profile and only one G-key.

This code won't work for mouse such as the G600. For those who want to implement this on a mouse, use the following new and greatly improved code:

-- How to use this script:
-- 1. Install the Logitech Gaming Software: http://support.logitech.com/en_us/software/lgs
-- 2. Launch it, and right click on your profile (the gear icon) and then click on "Scripts".
-- 3. Add the following code into the Script window, save it, and close it. Enjoy.
-- Now G9 on your G600 mouse is bound to F13, G10 to G14, ... G12 to F24.

function OnEvent(event, arg)
    -- Enable logging
    EnablePrimaryMouseButtonEvents(true)

    -- Table mapping mouse button numbers to F-key hex codes
    local fKeys = {
        [9] = 0x64,  -- F13
        [10] = 0x65, -- F14
        [11] = 0x66, -- F15
        [12] = 0x67, -- F16
        [13] = 0x68, -- F17
        [14] = 0x69, -- F18
        [15] = 0x6A, -- F19
        [16] = 0x6B, -- F20
        [17] = 0x6C, -- F21
        [18] = 0x6D, -- F22
        [19] = 0x6E, -- F23
        [20] = 0x76, -- F24
    }

    -- Debug function to get F-key name from hex code
    local function getFKeyName(hexCode)
        for i, code in pairs(fKeys) do
            if code == hexCode then
                return "F" .. (i + 4)  -- Adjusted to start from F13
            end
        end
        return "Unknown"
    end

    -- Function to handle key press and release
    local function handleKey(keyAction)
        if fKeys[arg] then
            local fKeyHex = fKeys[arg]
            local fKeyName = getFKeyName(fKeyHex)
            local actionName = keyAction == PressKey and "Pressing" or "Releasing"
            
            OutputLogMessage("Mouse button %d: %s %s (Hex: 0x%02X)\n", arg, actionName, fKeyName, fKeyHex)
            keyAction(fKeyHex)
        else
            OutputLogMessage("Unhandled mouse button: %d\n", arg)
        end
    end

    OutputLogMessage("Event: %s, Arg: %d\n", event, arg)

    if event == "MOUSE_BUTTON_PRESSED" then
        handleKey(PressKey)
    elseif event == "MOUSE_BUTTON_RELEASED" then
        handleKey(ReleaseKey)
    end
end
